Interview conducted about an hour after TypePad’s servers came back online. Discussed TypePad’s reliability issues over the past two months, what went wrong today, and how the company plans to prevent future outages and create a reliable service. This is an old interview, not related to the recent power outage.

Just so you know, that interview with me that you linked is a few years old — back then we’d had a system failure on our own hardware; The recent failure was a brief power outage that affected not just our systems but a lot of big websites, and was much briefer in its effects.
